Payment Plans

Five Year Payment Plan

The Installment Plan of Redemption (5-pay plan) is a plan that allows a taxpayer the ability to pay delinquent secured taxes in a minimum of five (5) installment payments. A new installment plan may be initiated after June 30 of the fiscal year in which the property taxes become delinquent. To start a 5 Pay Plan for delinquent taxes, you must:

Complete the 5-Pay Plan application

Make an initial payment of 20% or more of the delinquent amount due (total taxes which includes penalties, fees and interest) plus a set up fee of $25.00. This initial payment must in the form of a certified check, money order or cash.

Pay all current year taxes due in addition to 20% of the delinquent taxes due on or before April 10th of each year.

Please read the plan instructions carefully and call our office at (714) 834-3411 if you have any questions on how it works.

Four Year Payment Plan

Escape bills for Unsecured taxes in excess of $500.00 may be eligible to be paid on a Four Year Payment Plan (4-pay plan). The payments are payable over a four-year period as per California Revenue and Taxation Code.
